Hello List and Jo Teague, Jo recently asked the list about records on Lanark mines. Has anyone answered this query and I missed it? I too have relatives that worked in that area and I'm also wondering about names and places. My family names in Lanark are Russell and Neilson. Judi Ferguson Sawyer email [email protected] << From: "Margaret Teague" <[email protected]> Does anyone on the list know if any records were kept from the Friendly Societies, or Miner's Unions/Associations in Scotland in the mid to late 19th Century in the Lanarkshire mining regions and have they survived? If so, where would these records be today? Were there any records created concerning the assignment of company housing to miners or the payment of their rent or payroll that survive? Any information along these lines would be appreciated. Jo Teague >>
